Marathon Coach Custom Motorhome

Marathon Coach is to motor homes what Bentley is to automobiles: pure
luxury. A brand-new, fully loaded model can go for as much as $2.2
million, though used models can be picked up for less than $200,000. A
custom order takes about 180 days to build. For starters, each Marathon
Coach has a minimum of five high-definition TVs, ranging from 7 to 50
inches in size. A 515-horsepower engine powers this house on wheels,
and the stainless-steel chassis is covered under a 1.5 million-mile
warranty. Other wild options include pullout barbecues, electric
fireplaces, a second bathroom and a wine chiller. The major drawback is
that the vehicle gets only about seven miles to eight mpg.
